Abstract
Preparation conditions and properties of cellulose solutions in DMAA containing 7–8% lithium chloride are considered. Investigation of the optical anisotropy and structure of cellulose solutions in this solvent confirms that the LS state is attained with an increase in the concentration of cellulose. On the basis of these cellulose solutions, fibers not ranking below viscose fibers in mechanical properties are prepared. The use of a mixed solution of 95% cellulose and 5% poly(amidobenzimidazole) in DMAA containing 7% lithium chloride makes it possible to prepare films and fibers whose strength is more than two times greater than the strength of cellulose hydrate fibers. The deformation-driven orientation and supramolecular structure of fibers and films are studied by spectroscopy and small-angle scattering of polarized light.
